8. Not only does it not provide useable benefits as a result of copays and deductibles
It guarantees that any gains made by the working class and working poor to drag themselves out of this depression in the next decade will go directly to private ins. companies. Anyone who is financially subsidized will effectively be working not to get ahead but to pay ins. companies more money for shitty overpriced ins. as they struggle to work their way up the subsidized ladder.

Not only are the ins. corps getting a massive welfare program through subsidies, at least 40 million new customers and counting they get the majority of americans working their behinds off not to get ahead and save a bit but to turn any gains over to ins. companies as a result of reduced subsidies.
